British Contemporary Artist: Peter Beeson

Painting: Small Boat, St Ives Harbour

St Ives in Cornwall with its changing light and varied colours is a rich source of inspiration Read more

for Peter Beeson. In 'Small Boat, St Ives Harbour we can see how the textured surfaces of Beeson's paintings develop through the application of self-ground pigments and other organic materials. Peter prepares his own canvases by attaching linen to board, then priming the fabric thinly across the weave to preserve as much of its character as possible. He tends to choose pigments, not just for their colour, but also for their grain size, for the way they feel on the brush or knife, or the way they build a surface. The boat seems caught between the sea and the shore. A timeless scene.
